everybody loves a good sort out
recently i went through and got rid of every. single. e-mail. i ever received from guys i dated (or who wanted to date me).
in some ways it was fun to relive past memories and think "oh yeah! i forgot that i went out with that idiot." i especially enjoyed the ones that no matter how many times i stated that we shall not date, insisted on trying to get me to go out.
and a few others were bittersweet...but now that they are gone, i no longer accidentally stumble across them and remember afresh those heartaches.
all-in-all, it's a good idea to review one's dating history. if for no other reason for the stories* you can tell your friends.
*such as the time that some guy finally wheedled me into going out with him only for him to tell me that he's started dating some girl.

Definitely good to review, and then delete, those heartaches that are daunting.

You didn't even save the really humorous ones?
Probably a good idea.

okay, okay. you got me.
i created a new e-mail account and sent them all there. just in case i ever want to read them again.
(is that the modern day equilivant of trying them up in ribbon and putting them in a trunk?)
i just was tried of accidentally running into them while searching for something else.
